It's hard to believe that you just "happened to move" to another state at the exact same time you were charged with a criminal offense in your original state. That will not make the charge 'go away.' You will still have to face the charge.

All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states - it is impossible to know with certainty whether a particular state will choose to extradite you or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.
